From the Rosary:
Growing up, my favorite thing about Elizabeth was the collection of books she had bound herself. I loved opening the same looking covers and finding different books in each one.
Like those books she was mostly a mystery until she moved into our house when I was 14. Even then, because of my age and her lack of interest in high school sport, we did not talk much when she first moved in. I started reading literature for school and then a bit on my own. This was the...

From the Rosary: Being one of maaaaany Nagle grandchildren, as well as one of the 3 famous 80’s babies, it was not a given that I would have had the chance to know and experience either one of my grandparents. But somehow, I was blessed to fall into the right circumstances to have a substantial relationship with my grandmother at different points in my life.
As a child, I experienced her to be a teacher and a playmate.
She would pick me up from school and over graham crackers and...

Myna always amazed me with how she managed a household with 8 children. She and Dave were wonderful to be around. Seeing they have left a legacy of 60, between children, grands and great grands, I am mindful of the rule for kids and visitors alike, " Last one in the door does the dishes!"

This Camp Meeker kid learned to arrive 2 hours before dinner!

What a joy for her family and friends to have had the pleasure of her company to such a ripe age.

I am sorry...

She found great joy in discovering her New England roots, tracing them back to 1623 when Isaac Hart arrived in Cambridge, Massachusetts, from England. Finally in the past two years they discovered her half-brother, John Endicott Hart, from Cambridge Massachusetts was deceased, but her sister-in-law, Pamela Hart,...

Prayers and condolences to the Nagle family.

As a friend of Eileen’s and an admirer of the Nagle family, I share love and condolences for the loss of your mom, grandmother, great grandmother. She was a mother of a very large family and few of us know the effects on such a mom. Mine, a mother of ten, was strong but in later years I learned not to take that strength for granted. If she was weak I would sometimes applaud it. Strength is not always a good thing. May God bless your family and honor your parents with a graceful rest.
